To establish uniform standards for flag displays in the House of Representatives facilities.

New rules for House flag displays

This resolution would set uniform rules for flags shown in spaces the House controls. It would apply to House office buildings, offices or facilities used by House leaders for official purposes, committee locations used for official purposes, and other House-controlled areas. It would not apply to a Member's individual personal office space. Only seven flag categories would be allowed: the U.S. flag (per 18 U.S.C. 700(b)); official House flags and insignia; a Member's State flag displayed next to that Member's office; military service flags; the POW/MIA flag; flags eligible for the Bureau of Indian Affairs Hall of Tribal Nations; and flags of visiting foreign dignitaries during official visits. The House Administration Committee and the Sergeant at Arms would oversee implementation, create a process for temporary exceptions, and set a compliance timeline with an initial implementation date no later than 30 days after enactment.
